# Introducing N-Angulator

The Unix file system is essentially an N-dimentional sparse array that
currently lacks a decent editor and browser which
can effectively leverage the logical tri-angulation (or, more properly
"n-angulation") of atoms/blobs within it.

N-Angulator is the genesis, to wit, the "Model-T," of such a program.

# Discussion

IRC nick: N-Angulator

- N-Angulator: I wrote it 10 years ago and am no porting it to GNU emacs
- is this a graph-as-filesystem
- I'd much rather work with keybindings rather than clicking things. Is there support for that?
  - N-Angulator: I think the menu system does automatically assign some unique keys but it's been a long time since I looked at it
- I love these kind of advanced file systems
- This is weirdware in the best sort of way.
- Are you familiar with tagstore/TagTrees (by me) or Semantic File System (Gifford et al) or SemFS (Mohan at al) or TagFS (Blöhdorn et al)? my work: https://karl-voit.at/tagstore/en/papers.shtml -> preferably the PhD document that summarizes everything
